By building a strong bank grade security foundation around SaaS service while others focus on more fancy features. The reason is simple. While building Marvin XR (www.marvinx.com), our focus was on two things - 1. Enterprise customers 2. GDPR law in EU. While our competitors focused on more AR features, we focused on security so that even enterprises can adopt them without worrying. Security clearance is one of the biggest challenges for enterprises while purchasing/adopting a new solution.

It's ok to have competitors that are similar. It's a big world out there and any big market will have a few players. That said, I try to have at least a few unique features. Even if those features do not provide the bulk of the value, it can help in customer conversations.

All products are basically the same IMO, so the only way to make yours stand out is customer service. I see many tech founders ignoring this part, huge loss in revenue

@semigrownkid It's so important to have good customer service.

I was trying to differentiate by adding some different features and found out it was not the answer. (Sometimes maybe) Very difficult to achieve this by keeping the product simple and intuitive.

It seems to me that the basis of the product should be its own unique vision of the product. Copying other people's products or trying to specifically stand out from others is doomed to failure if your product does not have its own unique concept at the core.

@nickanisimov It doesn't always need to be unique, there are a lot of successful products which are just alternatives to already existing ones.

By comparing our solution to competitors directly. It's the most efficient way because the users might already have a concept or an association based on the competitor, so we can better highlight the differences. Another way is showing how our solution interacts with non-competitor solutions. Like GitHub Actions for example.

We differentiate by going out of our way to the most extreme for User Experience. Do you think this is a good strategy? @vladimir_zivkovic Btw we're launching soon, would love to hear your thoughts on our product: https://click.myways.ai/resumera...

@nirnimes Sometimes you can differ by just having different design.

We look at problems leads and customers are facing with existing solutions and think about how we can solve that, essentially finding a gap in the market. Delivering high-stakes exams to University Students in South Africa, we had to deal with load-shedding and experienced tonnes of problems with existing proctoring solutions. We realised that there was a space for a new, low-internet requirement proctoring solution. A big part of our ethos is also listening to what our customers want from our platform and doing our best to implement those features (within reason).

Features that other competitors cannot provide.

By understanding the problem and create solutions for the pain-points not addressed by your competitor and also by creating user-friendly solution for the same pain-point catered by the competitor if there solution is not user-friendly.

I believe the most important aspect is true insight oriented product and it is hard to catch

Playing to strengths and focusing on a few targets and executing them well
Janice Cook
Don't be afraid to highlight your strengths and what makes your product or service the best choice for your target audience. Be confident in your product and your ability to succeed in the market.
Vlad Zivkovic
@jancooking_o9 Confidence is one of the keys to success.
By NOT being an AI product in this market :P Btw, @vladimir_zivkovic , we are launching our Open Beta soon! You can find more at our website (and hopefully sign up for the beta) -> (https://www.lettre.app/)

@atik_hossain Not very difficult to differentiate without AI now days :) Sure I will support your launch!
